WEAR Your Baby!

Ahhh! I love it!! I think I have a new obsession, it started with having 2 children, and now with 3...it has grown. Baby wearing!! First, I must say that my preference is the wrap, an example of one you can buy is the Moby Wrap. Making one is SUPER simple, however, and can be very inexpensive (and does not have to require sewing!! Yay for me!). http://www.wearyourbaby.com/Default.aspx?tabid=121

Most people (in North America) see wearing as a way to get out of the house, however, I've decided (along with many cultures outside of the U.S.A.) that babywearing should be almost constant, until the child is mobile on their own, and even still used for the tired babe. Here's a great short article about baby wearing in another culture: http://www.continuum-concept.org/reading/in-ams.html

So, I was thinking...what else needs to change in my perceptions of raising my children? Where else do I need to rethink things? This may be just the beginning.
